Holiday Tiramisu

Directions

1. Wash hands with soap and water.

2. In a medium bowl, add mascarpone cheese and 3 tablespoons sugar. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. Set aside.

3. In a medium bowl using an electric mixer on medium-low speed, beat together 1 cup heavy whipping cream, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; beat until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold whipped cream into mascarpone mixture; set aside.

4. In a medium bowl using an electric mixture on medium speed, beat together remaining heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form; set aside.

5. In a shallow bowl, combine hot water, espresso powder and remaining sugar.

6. Dip ladyfingers into espresso mixture, one at a time, and place into the bottom of a cup. Use 4 ladyfingers per cup, and break into pieces as needed so they fit in the cup and create a full layer.

7. Spoon a layer of mascarpone mixture over top of ladyfingers. Repeat to make a second layer. Top with a dollop of whipped cream; repeat with remaining ingredients to make 6 cups.

8. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour before serving. Sprinkle each with cocoa powder before serving.
